3. A World Turned Upside Down: Ray Bradbury’s “Fahrenheit 451”

What is at the heart of Ray Bradbury’s most celebrated novel? Wonder, perhaps, and nihilism, engaged in an eternal battle…

Straight from our look at Plato’s “allegory of the Cave,” we plunge into one of the most important dystopian novels. This is the first of a three-episode series on Ray Bradbury’s masterpiece, Fahrenheit 451.

Episode notes:

  • Original art and music.
  • I highly recommend that you read the book before listening to this episode, as it contains major spoilers! (Also, as it is a great book totally worth your time…)
  • We discuss also Viktor Frankl’s “Man’s Search for Meaning” (originally published in 1959), also a great read.
